It's really difficult to be excited about this pregnancy as my first child because we are raising Elaina. I don't want her to feel left out or that we don't love her. Help Preggies!

Yeah just make sure you remind her often that she's gonna be a big sister and you're gonna need her help
@robmomma, your welcome! just make her feel involved as much as possible! and @her_plus_her_and_me is right, a gift helps! it helped my son when he got a big brother gift! its amazing how quick kids adapt, my oldest loves the baby and is his protector, which is surprising considering my son has severe ADHD, he is much better then we thought he would be
Try to make it special for her too. Get her a little big sister gift "from the baby" after delivery
thank you @xoxo512070, I am so worried that she will feel like we don't love her but we love her like she is our own!
My son is 9 and its my Fiance's step son pretty much, his father wants nothing to do with him. We were concerned about this as well because my son was the only one for 9 years. We just make sure to always include him in everything not adult like. Like we had him pick out outfits before baby came, he helped set up the babies room. Now we make sure gets equal amount of time from each of us and when baby is napping we both spend time with him to make sure he knows he is still loved and important. We also make sure he is involved with baby now, like holding and feeding when he wants so he feels like an important part of his life. Its just all aboit balance
We got custody of her and her parents are not involved. she calls my husband and I mom and dad. we want her to feel special but this is such a special time for my husband and I. ):
thanks girls! I really appreciate it. 😥 having this app really helps!
